Lol no they wouldn't if the radar is showing what it has been showing. This is a crazy strawman.

I'm honestly surprised Rhode Island or DBU didn't bring this up last week.
I saw someone post (maybe in this thread?) that they did blow up on the NCAA rep about having to play a DH after a 2 AM finish. No idea how true that is, but it wouldn’t surprise me.

I’m confident that I understand it better than you. You are going to smokescreen that the decision includes NCAA collaboration. But the reality is they almost always go with the call of the school appointee whose job is to monitor and assess the situation.
This opens up an avenue of impartial influence.
Think about it: rules haven’t recently changed. Weather patterns haven’t dramatically changed. Where was this “9 inning game block” expectation pre Johnson. Rain delays actually had rain and lightning, not 3 hours of sunshine.

He should have zero say when the game is played. It's his job to figure out his lineup and weather might be a factor. Deal with it.

What's the holdup? It's beautiful in downtown St. George

I’m convinced that LSU locks the NCAA rep in a closet until the series is over.

If LSU lost due to a weather delay and wasting the Eyanson start, this board would meltdown.

Huh? Neither played a double header.

Again... if the radar is showing what it has been showing today, no they wouldn't.
Keep going with the strawman though.

New start time 7:56? We gained 10 mins ?!
Posted on 6/8/25 at 6:52 pm to FMtTXtiger
7:56 now per stadium announcement
Posted on 6/8/25 at 6:53 pm to GeauxJeaux78
Sorry if already covered but are we sure about 8pm? If later gonna have to bring kids home and give tickets away.
Posted on 6/8/25 at 6:53 pm to FMtTXtiger
No, it’s 7:56 official

At this point the meltdown would be over not letting the game start at scheduled time and getting more out of Eyanson, rather than delaying additionally.
You do realize if the game at started at 5, we would be soon reaching the point of pulling him out anyway? The 2 hour delay would have hurt more than just playing.

You are correct. My brain hurts. Idk, I’ll have to find the post.

Glad we avoided all this sunshine!

Jeez. Everyone wishes this game started on time. It didn’t. Move the hell on.
